Technology
1,265g Wheelset
Roval's lightest clincher ever made. Hyper-responsive acceleration, magic in the corners, sublime over rough roads — no excess gram anywhere.
Hooked Tubeless Rim
Hooked rim allows real-world pressures up to 110psi with secure tire bead retention. Easier set up and mounting than hookless designs.
21mm Internal Width
Optimized for modern road tubeless tires. 33mm depth balances aero and compliance. 27mm external width for a clean tire profile.
LightAF Hubs
New low-profile hub bodies and machined rotor mounts shave 50 grams off the previous Alpinist hub. DT Swiss 180 Ratchet EXP 36t internals inside.
DT Swiss SINC Ceramic
Ceramic bearings deliver silky-smooth efficiency and outstanding durability. The gold standard for low-friction hub performance.
50 Iterations of R&D
Over 50 different rim layup iterations and hundreds of tests. Two-year development program that almost doubles existing impact certification standards.
System Optimized
Engineered hand-in-hand with Specialized Tubeless tires. Hubs, rims, spokes, lacing — all designed together as one system for maximum performance.
275lb System Limit
Built to handle the demands of elite road riding. Includes Roval rim tape, spare spoke & nipple kit. 275lbs / 125kg system weight limit.
